Description

This course provides an introduction to processes and technology associated with the construction and firing of studio based work in clay. It provides the opportunity for students to explore technical and creative skills in developing and executing studio based work in clay. Students develop familiarity with key skills and materials used in translating ideas to objects. The practical component of the course engages students with ceramic processes and materials while critical/theoretical elements encourage students to deepen their understanding of contemporary ceramic practice. In particular, studio projects give prominence to ideas and processes associated with non-functional, three dimensional ceramics.
